Keyword Parameters
Keywords
WATER=c24 or [r,g,b] Color for water as R,G,B.
LAND =c24 or [r,g,b] Color for land as R,G,B.
BACK =c24 or [r,g,b] Color for background as R,G,B.
COAST=c24 or [r,g,b] Color for Coastlines as R,G,B.
CGRID=c24 or [r,g,b] Color for Grid as R,G,B.
Colors may be 24-bit values or [r,g,b] arrays.
/GRID display a grid.
HOR=0 do not plot horizon (def is plot horizon).
/COUNTRIES Plot boundaries for countries.
/NOCOLOR Draw black on white background.
NAME=proj_name Can give map projection name to over-ride
the default orthographic project. Can find names from:
map_proj_info, proj_names=names
SCALE=sc Map scale (def=0). Try 2E8.
SAT_P=sp 3 element satellite parameter array.
See IDL help for map_set.
